Jordi Real
I am a senior biostatistician with training in statistics (5-year degree) and doctored in health research. I am currently working at Barcelona Institute for Primary Health Care Research Jordi Gol i Gurina IDIAPJGol , where I have accumulated long experience (since 2007) as a data analyst, statistics applied to epidemiology research. I collaborate in several research projects (mainly diabetes, cardiovascular diseases, mental disorders and statistical methodology). I perform statistical data analysis under different study designs such as cohorts, case-control, nested-case control or cross-sectional, as well as simulation studies.
Specialized in ‘Real World Data’ studies, based on clinical records, including pragmatic clinical trials, patient records, administrative data, health surveys or electronic medical records. At a methodological level, I have been working in some problems such as, for example, the implementations of functions to integration longitudinal data according one design optimally to reduce the bias.
I also provide statistical supervision to other statisticians, technicians, and PhD and MSc students. I have authored and collaborator of more than 60 papers in international journals. I have also created R packages and a web-app in R-shiny to visualized longitudinal data.
